hm, that'd mean we can also throw them out in different sizes, right?
i don't have much experience with svg, so, what (free software) tools
do you use for editing?
as long as you can produce a png file, basically everything is important,
even povray (and we'll definitely not supprot that natively ;) so if
you want to produce svg files, go ahead.

btw, i have been pondering for some while and stefan also has been nagging me,
about cooking up new dial, knob, scale and slider/fader widgets that support
scaled pixmaps.
that'll take some time to code though, but then still, we need decent pixmaps
to render those widgets (and we're both third-class artists ;), so if you are
interested in helping out on the pixmap side of this, i'll try to cook up a
proposal in the next few weeks on the image and coordinate format, so we can
toss around ideas on producing fancier faders and other widgets.
